Color is an amazing thing. We relish its vibrancy, its intensity. Our bodies respond to color,
affecting our emotions and sometimes how we perceive the world. The attributes of paint
allow us to explore one color in relation to another. Discoveries we make as we use the
brush to push paint around our canvas provide lessons in harmony, balance, and
relationships. Painting is rewarding and challenging. May the lessons continue
as we explore our world of color.
CUMULUS CLOUDS 11 x 14
Cloud forms and shapes are ever changing, and can be a form of
'entertainment' as well as a forecast of weather-to-come. This painting
was fun as I experimented with shading, shapes, and shadows. Is there
ever a painting that an artist doesn't think later, "Something in it
needs to be changed. I'll just brush-it-up a bit," etc. Ha! The
firmament above reminds us of the space of the heavens, reminding us how
puny is man.
